I've got my best quote with NIG aswell, but through H&R, where do you go for suzuki's own insurance to see if it compares?

Just a wee update on this one....

When the insurance guy eventually phoned back they said there was nothing they could do, and the full amount of £110 + admin fee of £25 would be taken off our card.

Upon hearing this my g/f exploded with rage at the guy! Basically gave them a good story about how we are part of a large bike club, local biking community etc. and also regularly on a forum (didn't mention here by name tho.) with a lot of Bennets trade which might just be swayed to another insurer if they hear about the way we were treated.

We gave them half an hour to reconsider their actions in light of this.

They phoned back and said we could have a full refund of the initial £110+admins, just leaving one £25 payment to cover temporarily altering the policy and leave it at that. Their next question was 'Were we happy about that?', we grumbled 'oh, suppose that will do then....'.


....puts phone down......


"YOU BEAUTY!!!!!!!!"

Just goes to show the power of persuasion women have!!!

I found a company called Wicked Quotes very good. They are a small company but search out the best deal.

All credit to Suzuki insurance IMO.

Im only 21 and have 4yrs NCB and i couldnt get a quote under £1000 for a GSXR 750.

Phoned Suzuki and fully comp with Protected No Claims came to only £800 (i say only, but thats not a bad price for a youf)

To my dispointment tho, my renual came through for the SV and it was only £400 gutted, but worth it.
